Renewed Inspiration To Work Toward Your Goal

January 3, 2011 By Karen Ficarelli

Many times, women will become inspired to exercise because of something they read in a fitness magazine. They maintain their motivation for a while but then become bored and lose interest. It’s hard to stay inspired without daily reminders or affirmations.

Fitness newbies aren’t the only ones who are at jeopardy for losing inspiration. Seasoned athletes need a boost every now and then, too. Sometimes we wonder why we are working so hard, when others are so casual about their health and fitness.

This is about the time that you are due for a fresh batch of inspiration. Perhaps you need reminding about why fitness is important to you. Or, why you’ve worked so hard the last months or years to reach the level you now hold.

Begin each day with positive affirmations. Say them aloud and in front of a mirror. Believe what you say and repeat it with conviction. If you look yourself in the eye, it’s hard to let yourself down.

Browse your fitness magazines and admire the beautiful bodies splashed across the pages. Visualize your picture next to theirs and how you will look when you have reached your fitness goals. Surround yourself with fitness information, so that it saturates your thoughts and inspires your will to achieve.

Discover new challenges with exercise routines that take you to the next level. To make familiar routines a bit tougher, you can add extra weights or sets. When you add circuit training exercises to your strength training workouts you’ll get explosive results.

Members of Fitness4Her have complete access to step-by-step exercise routines and 100’s of healthy recipes that are delicious and nutritious. It’s free to join and you could luck up and win some great prizes. Monthly contests, Tools4Her and lots of support are all available to help you work toward your goal. Join now.

As a personal fitness trainer, I receive many emails with questions about losing weight and women’s fitness and exercise. I am so passionate about these subjects that I answer each one myself. If you have a specific question, please don’t hesitate to email me, I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Inspiring Words For A Successful Exercise Program

December 10, 2010 By Karen Ficarelli

Are you ready to get serious about women’s fitness? If you want to lose weight and get in shape then join Fitness4Her and become a member with privileges. You’ll have access to inspiring words that will make you want to work toward your fitness goals.

No matter what your fitness level, no matter if you have tried before and failed, if you follow the Fitness4Her Diet and 30 Minutes To A New You Exercise Program then you will lose weight. Now, I’m not talking about a temporary solution. I’m talking about making permanent life changes in the way that you eat, drink and all of your activity.

Fitness4Her is a total fitness plan that addresses every part of a woman’s life to provide inspirational and motivational insights to keep you focused on your goal. I write monthly articles and share information about fitness and health as it applies to women. If there is a topic that you are interested in, please let me know.

Exercise is an important part of healthy living. It helps to rid your body of toxins, burns calories, strengthens your heart, builds muscle and lifts the spirit. An exercise program that combines aerobic exercise with strength training will give you optimum results.

But important to fitness and health is a woman’s diet. Much of what we eat and drink determines our weight more so than the exercise. Portion control is key to the amount of calories that we consume. However, a diet low in saturated fat, sodium, cholesterol and sugar will help you to cut calories and lose weight quicker.

My Fitness4Her Diet is designed for women who want to eat healthy but not follow a strict calorie counting diet. By paying attention to portion control, and eating foods rich in nutrients, you can control your weight.

If you are ready to change the way you look and feel, and want to do it right this time with a healthy lifestyle, then join Fitness4Her today. I can’t wait to hear from you.

Find Inspiration In Every Day Miracles

November 17, 2010 By Karen Ficarelli

When you are looking for inspiration, sometimes you need only look around you. Women, in particular, can find the inspiration to exercise by looking at their children and realizing how important their life is. As mothers, we have a responsibility to protect our own health so that we can care for our children.

Another source of inspiration to exercise comes from relatives. If obesity runs in your family, you can protect yourself by maintaining a regular exercise program at least 30 minutes a day for 6 days a week. Just this small amount of time spent working your body, can keep you from falling prey to hereditary weight gain or the common mid-life spread.

Exercise is not only important for maintaining weight. It helps to build muscles and strengthens our heart. When your children or husband want to play sports or do a physical activity, you will need the energy and endurance that regular exercise can provide.

That’s why I say that you can find inspiration in every day miracles. Just look at your family to inspire you to get healthy. Your children will be so happy when you feel fit and healthy and ready to participate in playing games with them. You don’t want to find yourself panting and exhausted after a short bike ride or run around the bases.

When your husband suggests a game of tennis or a marathon run, you can be prepared ahead of time, by daily exercise. Even if you aren’t up for strenuous competition, regular exercise can give you the energy you need to have fun.

You’ll find that as your fitness level improves, there are many activities that you can enjoy. Even vacations become more pleasurable because you are ready to accept new challenges and opportunities as you become more fit.

If you are ready to join in the fun and find out how you can achieve fitness in as little as 30 minutes a day, become a member of Fitness4Her. It’s free to join and there is no obligation but plenty of benefits such as:

• Monthly Contests
• Step-by-Step Exercise Routines
• Healthy Recipes
• Fitness4Her Tools
• Online Journal

Womens Fitness: Who Among You Is Inspired To Take The First Step

October 25, 2010 By Karen Ficarelli

Fitness4Her.com is an online diet and fitness program that is fully dedicated to women’s fitness. By becoming a member, you gain access into all the secrets that I have uncovered when it comes to losing weight and getting in shape.

You see, I was not always physically fit. A mother of three, I spent many years, driving my boys around to their many events and rarely had time for myself. Looking to get in better shape, I longed for an exercise program that would fit into my busy schedule.

However, finding time to exercise was just a myth, I realized it was up to me to create time to exercise, if I really wanted to get fit. It was all up to me. I couldn’t sit back any longer and just wish my body into shape.

I had to take charge of my life and my fitness program and so I began exercising for 30 minutes every day. It wasn’t always easy, and I certainly had a list of other responsibilities that I needed to attend to, but I also knew that I needed to take better care of my health. I had often heard the adage that people rarely appreciate their health until it is lost and didn’t want to be just another statistic.

Exercise changed my life. Not only did I feel better physically, but I felt great mentally and spiritually as well. I believe that physical fitness promotes clarity of thought and boosts confidence too.

Felicias Story of Fitness Success

September 8, 2010 By Karen Ficarelli

I want to share an inspiring story of a girl that I have known for years. By focusing on women’s fitness, my friend, who I’ll call Felicia in order to protect her identity, lost over 50 pounds and never gained it back.

Her story may sound like that of people you have known. She is like many women who have had the fortitude to focus on their goals and stick to their plans.

When Felicia graduated from college, she weighed more than she had ever weighed in her life. Always a bit plump, she and her family were accustomed to a Southern diet that included lots of butter and sugar. Red meat and potatoes were favorites with fried chicken and potato salad running a close second.

During her college years, she continued to eat many of the same foods that she grew up with, but added the habit of late night eating coupled with fast food. Her weight escalated for the next four years and even though she was young, she began to experience some health issues. Her blood pressure had begun to rise, her cholesterol levels were too high, and she was beginning to notice feet problems from supporting the extra pounds. Felicia knew she needed to address her weight issues but she had failed with diets and exercise before and hated to go through the anguish of defeat.

A graphic designer, Felicia found a job quickly and began working long hours sitting in front of a computer. Since she didn’t know anyone yet, she brought her lunch and read a book. Out of boredom, she noticed that she was snacking more and more. Unhappy with her weight, she made a plan to do something about it.

She started buying cookbooks with healthy cooking ideas and recipes. Soon she and her family were preparing delicious meals that were lower in calories and saturated fat. They found that they really could enjoy a meal without all the butter.

Focused on making healthy lifestyle changes, she started walking every day for 30 minutes. She would take 30 minutes to eat lunch and then 30 to walk. Although it wasn’t an aerobic workout she was getting out and moving.

She and her mother began to lose weight from the change in their diet. With summer vacation only months away, they decided to join a gym and start exercising. Once they got started they never looked back. Not only did they both look fantastic that summer, but they both continued with their efforts.

Just like Felicia, it’s possible to change the way you eat no matter what your diet has been in the past. It may take a little while, but if you will make conscious changes, always focusing on healthy eating and never overeating, you can lose weight.
